Or should I not

Sell my 2004 range rover and buy a 2007 range rover v8 hse. The mileage of the 2 vehicles are not too dissimilar, however comparisonsshow thefollowing:

2004 bmw v8 5 speed box, rear dvd system,lowish settlement 2007 jaguar v8 6 speed box, terrain response, heated seats, touchscree satnav, possible run-in with SWAMBO,

I'd ideally want a S/C Rangeroverbut thisseemsto bea good deal

What would you do?

The jag 4.4 is a lovely motor, but its not a supercharged...i ended up in the 4.4 vogue because I couldn't justify the £7-8k premium that similar age/mileage s/c were commanding at the time (18 months ago).

Some days I don't mind the compromise, but some days I wish I'd spent the extra.....but then I would have had the SWMBO issue too and that's always going to be expensive Wink

England 2003 Range Rover HSE 4.4 V8 Epsom Green

If it were me I might wait just a few more months. I have a really good feeling that lots of wealthy dudes with pampered 2006+ Rangies will take a fancy to the L405 and trade up. So a glut of choice and soft prices*. There's not a lot wrong with the non-SC models - roughly 1 second slower to 60 on the rare occasions you need that, but roughly 1mpg better all the time. And no ultra-highspeed whizzy turbo thingy to go wrong. Having written that, I must confess I am turning more and more towards the "specialness" of the SC.



*Remember: your home is at risk if you buy an L322. The values of L322's can plummet as well as go down. 2003 4.4 HSE Epsom Green / Sand. Lovely!
